I finally fixed the LST after it layed down in the corner a few weeks. So I went to the nearest track here, it's a track witch is actually made for 1:8 nitros, and most of them driving 1:8 nitros. So I thought I'm gonna pwn their nitro's even I got a huge monster truck.

I didn't drive ONE single round and a shaft in the driveaxle was broken. I got this thing for about a year now, and didn't drive ONE single battery through it. It always had some issues. I will list them:
- Hexes + Wheels stripped -> bought 14mm aluminium hexes, works fine
- Shaft in an axle broke -> bought new one
- Shaft in one of the middle axle broke -> bought new one
- Diff had some issues, had to get out the shims (only the rear one, front one was fine. Strange?) -> Also bought alu diff cups, works fine now
-> And today I broke the third shaft if an axle (It's the thrid one because they're all the same, just on different places)
- Stock body is crap -> have to buy a new one soon, even I didn't drive more than 10000 mAh through it.

Ok, so I didn't drive more than 10.000mAh through this car, and I had all these problems. I don't drive like an idiot, and I took the whole car apart, cleaned it and build it together again. (Bought it used) I've read that the LST is an awesome basher... Do I have bad luck or what?

My setup is a Quark Airmaster 125B, Plettenberg Bigmaxximum and a Flightmax 5000mAh 30C LiPo. These electronics are AMAZING! I love them! But the car really dissappoints me. It's btw an LST1.

Today it was the first time in my life that I thought about selling the car and buy a Ofna E-buggy and pwn the nitro's. I'm really disappointed today... What should I do? Sell this thing and get a Ofna, or do I just have amazing bad luck? (I've read so many times a LST is such an amazing strong basher, but as you see, mine isn't)

EDIT: After I didn't drive one single round with the LST, I took the Rustler VXL. (This car is so amazing, I got it 2 years, always ran awesome) And also with that one, I didn't end up driving one single round. I'm so disappointed...
